So I posted this on AIBU but didn't really get any replies and I am trying to get some perspective so posting again.
So the background is that my boyfriend was friends with my dad years before we got involved (my boyfriend is a few years older than me so no where near my dads age). My dad was very horrible towards me recently so I am not currently speaking to him. He was so nasty that I was crying my eyes out and basically had a panic attack! My boyfriend knows this but he is still speaking to my dad and has gone to help him with something today, it's a work thing and he will get paid so he's happy to do it.
I'm not trying to be a spoilt brat or anything but I feel like as my dad was so horrible and left me in such a bad state that it doesn't appear like my bf is very supportive as he is continuing with my dad as he normally would so in a way it looks like my dad hasn't done anything wrong! My dad is a narcissist and takes what he wants and if he doesn't get it becomes very horrible!
My boyfriend is a nice person and has a forgiving nature and seems to be able to take a lot more shit than I can. If someone had upset him as much as my dad upset me I'm not sure I would be happy to work with or for them. But I know I can be stubborn and I think it's because I'm guarded as I grew up with not the nicest supportive family.
So AIBU to be annoyed about this?
